Come Dine with Us

Private homes in and around Devizes

Friday 29th September 7.30 pm £25

Enjoy a dinner party in a private home – but you will only be told where you are going a day or two before. Hosts will serve an aperitif and at least three courses. This is always popular – look at the feedback we have had: ‘Bob and Jen were excellent hosts, and the meal delicious’, ‘fabulous food and great company!’, and ‘a lovely meal in the company of an interesting mix of people’.

Maximum of two tickets per booking, and singletons very welcome.
